About Colin

Colin Stone is an internationally accredited Professional Relaxation
Therapist and a composer of therapeutic relaxation music.
He trained in the renowned methods of Edmund Jacobson’s scientific
relaxation, and received his diploma with distinction in Relaxation
Therapy from BSY, the largest complementary health college in Britain.
He is a member of the Associated Stress Consultants (UK) and is a practitioner
member of the American Holistic Health Association. He plays Native
American Flute and keyboards.

Born in Los Angeles, California, Colin studied broadcasting at Los
Angeles City College. After college, he spent several months living in
Japan, where he discovered the powerfully relaxing music of artists
Kitaro, Osamu Kitajima, and other groundbreaking musicians who continue
to influence Colin’s music.

Upon returning to Los Angeles, Colin joined radio station KTWV
(“94.7 The Wave”), one of the first stations to play
progressive instrumental “new age” music in its lineup.
He later worked with San Francisco-based The Sharper Image, managing
health and fitness product lines including shiatsu massage chairs,
white-noise sleep machines and a device called the “Inner Quest” that
stimulated the brain's relaxation response by using light and sound.
It was the Inner Quest that first gave Colin the idea of a relaxation
centre back in 1990.

Colin’s lifelong interest in relaxation eventually led him to
pursue formal studies in the science of stress and how to activate the
body’s stress-fighting biochemistry naturally, without drugs, by stimulating
the parasympathetic nervous system.

His love of calming music, relaxation technology, and the Japanese
style, along with his knowledge of natural stress reduction have all come
together into his relaxation centre in Halifax. It's a unique private
environment where his clients can experience deep relaxation that
naturally eliminates tension from the mind and body.
